Getting a feel for how hard to strike a putt means more than just waving the putter head around just before addressing the ball. Next time, try looking at the hole while making those practice strokes feeling how your body is reacting rather than feeling the weight of the putter. Take notice how much your shoulders are rocking back and forth, the pace of the practice stroke and the amount of pressure in your hands. Try to emulate that exact motion and feeling on your next putt.
